'Superman' Van Dijk must be rotated by Liverpool, explains Milner
The commanding Dutch defender remains a talismanic presence for the Reds, but he is still working his way back from a serious knee injury

That is the case for the commanding Dutch centre-half at Anfield, with the 30-year-old Netherlands international sitting out much of the 2020-21 campaign with knee ligament damage.
